Just before we bury the whole unpleasant mess, however, may 1 promise that I will make no more election predictions? Oh, I was right. | warned that the Canadian people are among the most volatile in the world when it come to poli- tics. They proved it. And [| prophesied that the Tories and NDP would gain, and that it would be the Liberals again: with, a minority government. But they didn’t have to take me so seriously. | didn’t mean that size of a minority. From now on, I shall desist from making forecasts, as it seems to put the hex on things, However, I take back none of what I said. Mr. Trudeau never did have the common touch, the politi- cianjs. instinct. Mr, Stanfield * stilf’sounds as though’ he'd got both feet into one leg of his long-johns. And Mr. Lewis was never more smarmy than when the re- turns were coming in. Despite my disenchant- ment, at the last moment I decided to vote Liberal, chiefly because of fear that what did happen might hap- pen. A ship of state with no rudder, two wheelsmen fighting for the wheel, and the winds of change blowing up into a typhoon. Some ‘riding results were of particular interest to me. 1 was glad to see that my + old friend, Ross Whicher, with whom I shared a cou- ple of campaigns when we were mere boys, was one of the Lucky Liberals to squeak in. I was sorry to see an- other old friend, Perry Ryan, who represented Toronto Spadina for years, get the axe. He made the political mistake of standing by his principles, and quit the Liberals for the Tories when he couldn’t agree with policy. A pity. 1 was also sorry to see Paul Hellyer elected. He is a politician whose ego seems equalled only by his ambi- tion, The record: Ran for Liberal leadership. Beaten. Liberal cabinet minister. Quit. Founded Action Canada — a flop. Joined the Conservatives. He may have great abilities, but 1°ll never forgive him for unifying the - armed forces. You see how little our vote depends on reason. I mentioned those three to suggest what a fickle creature the average Cana- dian voter is. I'd have voted . for Whicher, Liberal, for old times’ sake, For Ryan, Con- servative, because he's a good man, And against Flellyer, Conservative, be- - cause of his many-coloured coat. There's an old-fashioned idea that Canadians are a re- served, conservative people, because we five in a stern and tigourous climate, and uren’t given much to either dancing or rioting in the streets. The idea is completely unfounded.

Oh, it did the heart good, I can tell you, to see the Canadian character as it really is. None of this “‘good losers” nonsense of other northern races, Our hearts were in every cross-check, and every one of us was there, at least in spirit, as our boys, at the winning goal, kissed each other and hugged each other and slob- bered over each other.
